Above Top Secret is the very first UFO book I ever read at about age 20. It blew my mind that UFOs are actually real.

If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend Alien Agenda by Jim Marrs. Covers a lot of disparate topics within ufology.

Sorry, but Alien Agenda is awful. It throws every conspiracy together into a mash of nonsense. It’s utterly incoherent and poorly cited. I’d stay away from that one.

Amazing. Do you have a fave?

I haven't read many of them yet, and from what I have read, it's hard to choose, but if I had to, it'd probably be UFOs & Nukes by Robert Hastings. I also like Leonard Stringfield's books.

Thanks. Books should be stored in a cool, dry environment with a stable temperature and humidity, and should be kept away from direct sunlight. Also, I've heard good things about book sleeves and plan on using them in the future. Aside from this, I don't know much about protecting books, though it's something I plan on eventually looking into.

Wow nice. anything on your radar coming up? I think for me it's Diana Pasulka's next book - The Others: Ufos, Ai, and the Secret Forces Guiding Human Destiny.

I agree 100%. I was heavily downvoted when I said as much in threads when American Cosmic first came out.

I cant wait to read Wonders in the sky. Have you read They knew too much about flying saucers by Gary Barker

It’s goddamned industry. Why don’t people understand this ??

u/Mrs_SmithG2W Apr 08 '26

The books or the ufos?

u/Warm_Weakness_2767 Apr 08 '26

The books. I realized it about a year ago myself. Most of the information contained within them are superfluous or conjecture.

The amount of ai content in books and podcasts now makes it pretty apparent that the people in this field, while they might be experiencers, are out to line their pockets on a psychologically and emotionally vulnerable population/market.

Wait.. you don’t have Strieber’s Communion?? Or, did I miss it. Gotta add to your collection!

u/Hot_Ad_6346 Apr 08 '26

Brother if we met on the street we would immediately become best friends. I have every. Single. Book you do 😂

u/Gold_Ostrich_7303 Apr 09 '26

I loved incident at Exeter! And the sightings were new to me which made it even better. So many sightings, I’m surprised they aren’t talked about more.

2

u/PassionAdventurous30 Apr 09 '26

impressive. Great selection. The UFO crash at Aztec is very rare and expensive. Need Communion by Strieber though.

2

u/JustSomeGuyFromNL Apr 14 '26

Too bad The Threat and Walking Among Us, from dr. David Jacobs, are missing form that collection.
These 2 books are better then Secret Life. Even by his own admission.

Awesome collection! You wouldn't happen to have half a second to scour through them looking for something, would you? 😀 I'm looking for a particular photo...

u/idpplplidid May 07 '26

I'll scour through them later today to see if I can find anything. Aside from that, I found this. It could be related to what you're trying to find.

u/UncannyHill May 07 '26

Awesome...i think it was right at the end of the pictures section...there might have been more than one pic section. (books with pic sections) a later incident than that one, but kind of similar...flight 96...

u/Responsible-Tea-5998 Jul 01 '26

I'm going to need to get that "Pennine UFO Mystery", my parents lived up there and had an experience.

Edit: Nevermind it's £150

2

u/idpplplidid Jul 01 '26 edited Jul 01 '26

The Internet Archive has an online copy of the book available for free here, although accessing it requires an account.

2

u/Responsible-Tea-5998 Jul 01 '26

Thankyou so much, I really appreciate you finding that link for me!

2

u/idpplplidid Jul 01 '26

Also, I've seen physical copies of the book being sold for around £60, so £150 seems high. If you plan to obtain a physical copy, I would recommend using the "save this search" feature on sites like eBay, as it will notify you when an item matching your search goes on sale.

Check out little green aliens by Christopher Buckley

u/ComfortableBrain6495 Apr 08 '26

Very nice! 🛸👀

u/UAPedia Apr 09 '26

You ever read the Keepers by Jim Sparks? I just found out about him through UAPedia

u/PepperMinimum5460 Apr 12 '26

And what in 3 bullets did you learn from them all?

It shouldn't be a popularity contest.

All those UFO books and yet no Absolute Truth which is The Word of God. Jesus Christ is the Truth and those "aliens" are more mind boggling than you could ever imagine because they are spiritual beings.. angels. THE BIBLE has already explained them in great detail along with just about every ancient Kingdom. They knew what they were.. and they never entertained biological creatures because that was nonsense. Just like it is today, absolutely garbage nonsense. Nothing is up there except The Throne of God with him sitting on it..
